Professional Scrum Product Owner - Advanced

Professional Scrum Product Owner - Advanced (PSPO-A)

Whenever I work with an organization looking to transform to Agile, one of the first things we discuss is empowering the Product Owner. The Product Owner is a critical driver in the success of any Agile transformation. Their job is to maximize the product's value through the content and ordering of the Product Backlog. Organizations need a single person responsible for the product's strategy to succeed in delivering complex products. This is a simple but profound truth. The Product Owner identifies strategies to add the most value to the product.

In PSPO-A, participants learn more strategies than are presented in the beginner class. We will also offer a lot more activities. For Product Owners who want to deepen their skills, PSOP-A is for you. If you need to have a deep understanding of what the Product Owner does, PSPO–A is for you.

An essential part of setting the Product Owner up for success is training. The Professional Product Owner - Advanced (PSPO-A) course focuses on helping experienced practitioners expand their ability to maximize the value of the Product.

Mary took into consideration all participants opinions and questions.

The class was informative, and the instructor knew the material. Mary took into consideration all participants opinions and questions. The class not only reviewed Scrum but incorporated aspects of Kanban and when these aspects should be used. I learned about different charts that can be used to explain to leadership how the Agile team works and why it is advantageous to use Scrum with Kanban. - Anthony.
